Creme pouco denso e consistente. No aroma e no sabor, doce e levemente salgada ao mesmo tempo. O final é longo e adocicado.

A .33L bottle from Alko shop. A little bit hazy pale yellow colour. White head. Mild hoppiness and maltiness in the taste. Slightly sour and also little bit sweetness. Some hints of raisins in the nose.

Pretty orange beer. Sour and honey-y. Tropical fruit bitterness that doesn’t work with the honey prevents this from being a real gem. Medium body and soft carbonation. Very drinkable.

One thing can be said for Petrus beers- they are almost always at least pretty to look at. This blonde lacked the spiciness that would like from the style, but was fine otherwise.

Burnt orange underneath a firm white froth. Forceful perfume aromatics and the sharp and musky aroma of dried apricots sink through chunky, stewed malts. Piquant acidity --made more so by sharp carbonation-- yields to caramel and drupe sweetness before a short floral and medicinal finish. Appropriately velvety and attenuated with sparse flab.

Peculiarly dank with a few sharp corners; lacks the crispness many Belgian blond ales manage.

33cl bottle, best before 09 July 2009.

Sour, almost lambicesque. I loved this stuff, bought a few since I rated it. Some people sound like they didn’t particularly care for it but thats what beer drinking is all about. You aren’t going to take someone elses word for it (least of all mine) so you drink it and make up your mind. Me, I loved it.
